2 men rob, beat up 87-year-old man

11/12/2008 HANCOCK PARK, Calif. Norman Rosenfield, 87, was out walking his dogs, and when he returned home in the 600 block of North Gower Avenue, two male suspects followed him inside and beat him up at about 11 p.m.

Rosenfield returned from the hospital Wednesday morning with a black eye and several other bruises on his face and body.

Police said he was the victim of a home invasion robbery. The suspects stole his wallet, with cash and ID inside.

"Very horrible, he's an old guy, can't defend himself, and two guys come in and beat him up badly. He has fractures in his face. He knows his nose broken. He bled an awful lot," said his brother Martin Rosenfield.

"He told me just yesterday that there had been several break-ins on this block."

Anyone with information is urged to call the Los Angeles Police Department at (877) LAPD-24-7.
